SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1878. Yarn Factory. We publish to-day the proceedings of the Committee appointed on the Yarn Factory and wt uId particularly urge it upon all classes of our com munity to invest some portion of their earnings in this enterprise. The price per share is only twenty-five dollars, sufficiently low for the poorest of our citizens to lend tho measure a helping baud. The actual accumu lation of property is not the only benefit to be derived from the estab ment of this factory; it will create indeed in our mid&tjnew products ?which will have their values; but. besides this it will give remunerative employment to at least forty of our citizens, which is an item of no in considerable value. If successfully carried out, it will be but the begin ning of larger operations, new and more extensive productions ami an increase in the number of laborers, and therefore greater prosperity to all classes in our community. With the new productions new markets will be created, larger supplies to meet increased demands, and, of ne cessity more extensive exchange of valO.es will be the result. The complete success of such nn enterprise looks to an inciense of the population, the enhancement in the value of lands and building mate rial, tho prosperity of mechanics and the establishment of other into rests uulookcd for from the present standpoint. Such a state of things is no improbability, for the manufactur ing communities at the North and elsewhero prove that like results iollow like causes, and all that is needed here is faith in the undertak ing and works to prove the faith. The Pope of Rome Since the death of Pio Nino the Catholics of'the Portifical States have been called upon to consider the most "tJiTesttoii kTT?wu t<5~the cl7Tfrch7 fd in view of the diffeuces existing ?tween those States and the rest of dy, Germany and France, a ques lon of vital importance To adjust lese troubles it was necessary to [elect a man of moderate views, minently learned and at the same ime dignified in his manners. Such combination of qualities was found, [by the college of cardin als, to exist fin Joachim Pecci, an Italian cardi nal, who was elected Pope of Rome and will hereafter be known in the history of the world ns Leo XIII. The now Porti, in addition to his oth er qualities, brings to tho aid of the church the experience of age, being about G8 years of age, and will pro bably do as much toward the adjust ment of the delicate relations as any man living. The reputation he boars at home seems to warrant the prevail ing opinion of Europe and America that he is a man of decided ability, prudence and no extremist. This is fortunnte for Christendom, especially when it is remembered that there are 200,000,000 catholics scattered over the world among whom the will of the Pope is the highest law. D T. Corblu. By a late dipatch to the Charles ton Journal of Commerce, it is stated that the committee, appointed to investigate the claims by which Gen. M. C. Butler of South Carolina obtained his seat in the United Slates Senate have, completed their labors and are ready to report in favor of D. T.Corbin and against Gen. But ler, It is strange how tho evil for pnes of some men will bring them, ce dregs, to the surface and acquire them a degree of notoriety even jh it bo of a very question able U tho vermin that info eted the South Carolina during the Vi of her deep humiliation fotoirthe little left from the has been more abhorred Vis than the name of the ling this article. A ^beggar, by the multi oflieei? he w;h en nbled to hold, becomes a reputed millionaire; this bloated millionaire, with nothing to recommend him but a hitter hatred for our people, is made, by the most vindictive ngonts of a wrecked party, a Carolina b'ena torj this defeated Senator, with all tho I stirred up in him, is attempted to he innde by appointment of the Chief Magistrate of the United .States, the District Attorney for South Carolina, this disappointed Attorney, chewing the cud of discontent, id t> hi :'oistod upon us. by n mere committed, against tho will of !he Senate; and this would he foisted Senator, by tho wtight of the malignity of his char acter, is to-day tho most detested wretch that ever poluted our soil. A. down troddeu State, struggling to rise from her prostration, might have beeu spared this last insult. Why not allow the base carpet bag ger to enjoy his 'ill-got wealth and fame in his New England home where his talents may be appreciated and his character admire 1. Tho Mirth Day of Washington. One hundred years ago Washing ton created a new era, from which should begin a different phase in tho p lilies ol nations; and a new epoch, from which the ehronologUt might date the record of events doitiim I to control tho future historians of the world. Jn honor, therefore, of the character which embodied such exal ted virtues the citizens of our country, iu this cculuniul year, met together in the towns ami cities to pronounce panegyrics in praise of the most dis tinguished person of modern times. This is the first lime the people of tin South, for seventeen years, havi b en able to unite their efior's with oth2 r sections of our land to wetvc afresh a wreath of love, and, as it wen, to place it upon the toomb of the father of our common country. Internation al strife threw a vail for four long years over the memory of him whe was first iu war, first in peace aud first in the hearts of his countrymen. Sectional variance,based upouacriru nal prostitution of the power of the conqueror, kept the country divided, and the bayonet, iu times of profound peace, guarded the avinues leading to reconciliation; but on Thursday j last national love, true to her ollice, gathered tho citizen of a redemied county around a common alter 10 do honiogo to the name and to perpetu ate the memory of the virtues whic h j have given dignity to the American Nation and a glorious lustre to her history. It was eminently proper that South Carolina should celebrate this occasion under the leadership of Hampton and Eec; the one, resemb ling his prototype in virtue, and, under the influence of success, has become first in the hearts of his countrymen; the other was the son of him whose memorj is embalmed in the Southern heart with the.cause he served so faithfully. 'I Ids act of a redeemed country and a reunited people declares that South Carolina will do her full share of duty as cheerfully and as faithfully in the future as she evtr did in the past. May a new season of pnsperity dawn upon our whole people. ? ? ?? ? Meeting ol Factory Committee.
